Hard Rock recorded $35.2 million in win last month — an incredible 16.9% increase compared with its January 2022 win of $30.4 million.

The Gary entertainment destination also accounted for more than 17% of the state’s $203.1 million in total casino win for the first month of 2023.

Matt Schuffert, president of Hard Rock Casino Northern Indiana, credited the mild January weather for boosting the fortunes of Hard Rock and several other Region casinos on a year-over-year basis.
